CAYUSE VINEYARDS SYRAH ARMADA VINEYARDS 2010 (3)
Walla Walla Valley, Washington.

The 2010 Syrah Armada Vineyard saw 22 months in puncheons and a second-fill foudre. It offers gorgeous purity in its black raspberry and cassis fruit, crushed rock and spice-laced aromatics, yet is relatively closed and backward at the moment, with an almost granite-like tightness and focus on the palate. It could flirt with perfection at maturity, but it needs 3-4 years of cellaring at the moment. Drink: 2019-2030 97+ WA
